Aims & Scope
Metallography, Microstructure, and Analysis (MMA) focuses on the art and science of preparing, interpreting, and analyzing microstructures in engineered materials to better understand materials behavior and performance. MMA covers the methods of evaluation of microstructures in engineered materials for use in a wide range of applications. Coverage includes new techniques which help examine, interpret, and analyze microstructures and microstructural properties in metals, alloys, and ceramics. Journal content examines how microstructure is influenced by factors including thermal and mechanical processing, environmental degradation, and joining and welding. MMA examines the ways in which microstructure is influenced by tribological interactions, additive manufacturing, and more. Readers may submit guesses to identify the Mystery Micrograph in every issue.

Ethics & Quality
Think.Check.Submit Compliance
A twelfth criterion — whether APC fees are clearly disclosed — is not scored here; it is left out of the total rather than counted as a failure. Publication charges appear in the metrics card above.
Based on the Think.Check.Submit framework by DOAJ, COPE & OASPA. All data from verified open sources.
Publication & Citation Trend
Source: OpenAlex · Each year’s green bar = citations earned by that year’s papers, counted to date — so recent years look lower simply because their papers haven’t had time to be cited yet.
